This game started out playable for me and I really enjoyed what I got to play of it. If you are able to play this on your computer, you will enjoy this....but if you get an error, read on: I was able to play this game on day one. The next day it threw a DX11 error where it was looking for a hardcoded location on someone named Jenkins' computer. I was told that I needed to log into my other user "jenkins" account. After telling the developer that that error was not on my end (as I had checked drivers/updates, redownloaded, etc.) and finding another person with the same issue online and them telling them the same thing, they then told me that I didn't have the right specs on my computer for it to open. After letting them know that I played initially with DX12 and even switched it back to DX11 specifically to play this game to see if that worked, and that I had already played over 100 minutes in the game on a previous day and this started being a problem after a patch that got pushed out after the first day, they emailed me telling me it was a DirectX issue and gave me a list of possible fixes. I had already tried all of these (several times), so I waited for the next update just in case, but after that came, nothing changed with the game. So without a way to play the game, I requested a refund and was denied because it had been too long since purchase. Now I have a copy of this game that I cannot play. If you get this error, I suggest requesting a refund right away....the difficulty with playing the game will become great.
I (68male) really enjoyed this. I remember doing the Monkey Island series with my kids and have a ton of fun with them (but we took advantage of walkthroughs a LOT because the puzzles often didn't have any kind of logical solution). I wanted a game to give me the same kind of feeling but that had puzzles that could be solved without force-solving. This game gave me that and a load more. I got drawn into the story, felt the jeopardy throughout and especially at the end. Best game of this type I've experienced by a looong way. Great job by the developers.
A great point and click adventure game, and my favorite of 2025 Mystery surrounds the plot, but it is clear what makes it work: A solid cast of easily identifiable characters, good voice acting, mostly intuitive puzzles, great balance of different types of comedy and the macabre, and an uncommon (but thematically fitting) setting for the genre. The characters Murphy McCallan may not have the personality that lends itself to be as iconic and memorable as protagonists like Kathy Rain, April Ryan, or the infamous Rufus. Despite Murphy’s awesome name, he is the straight man of the tale, who contrasts both the more theatrical and weird personality of the locals and the wickedness of the antagonist. Do not worry though, there is plenty of fun eccentric characters, who while odd still feel like they can exist in a story that can be serious and dark in between. Some noteworthy characters include a little girl, who would rather play with ghosts than toy boats and a grumpy gravedigger, who has previously been tricked by said girl to believe he buried people alive. Voice acting The voice acting of the supporting cast can be theatrical, over the top, and could belong in an old timey movie, and I love it for it. It adds to the charm and feels very intentional. Murphy’s lines and comments about the world seem a lot more muted, creating a solid contrast, and sound like he is remarking things for his diary while inspecting or combining items. Mostly Intuitive Puzzles Few games have 100% success rate in intuitive puzzles, and a few might just have been less intuitive, because I did not know what the substance was. Still, this game did a great job, and there were not any parts, where I felt it did not make sense at all, once I discovered the solution. Setting & tone The side characters provide a lot of levity with their antics and the solutions to the puzzles, with the main plot providing a more emotional tale people die, mind control played for drama rather than laughs, and a twist near the end, that people might have seen coming, since it is not an uncommon trope, but the genre did not make me think of it. The 1930s provide a great setting, that I have not often explored, allowing for a point and click game without a lot of modern conveniences and struggles. You do not have to be foolish to play Foolish Mortals, as it is a game for many lovers of Point-and-click adventure games.
